Nerve compression syndrome occurs when a nerve is squeezed or compacted. It typically occurs at a single location. Nerves in the torso, limbs, and extremities may be affected. Common symptoms include pain, numbness, and muscle weakness at the site of the nerve.
Repetitive injuries, accidents, and medical conditions may lead to:
reduced blood flow to the nerve
swelling in the nerve and surrounding structures
damage to the nerve’s insulation (the myelin sheath)
structural changes in the nerve
All of these changes have a negative impact on the nerve’s ability to send and receive messages. This can cause symptoms such as pain, numbness, and reduced function.

Describe the structure of the pleura.
- Double walled sac
- with a cavity filled with fluid
- Pareital( outside) and visceral (surface of lungs)
318
Why Does the lung want to collapse naturally?
- Job is to reduce friction.
- Lungs always want to collapse
1. Fluid is made of water and water is polar covalent molecules. In a polar moleule there is an unequal sharing of electrons making one end more positive and one end moore negative. In water the oxygen end is more negative so it attracts the positive Hydrogens on other water molecules and hydrogen bonding occurs. The cohesion of the water molecules is pulling inwards trying to collapse the lung
319
How does the pleura maintain a negative pressure?
This negative pressure within the pleura is called intrathoracic pressure. This pressure is due to three main things.
1. Surface tension of the alveolar fluid causes the lung to pull inwards
2. The recolil of the elasticity of the lung also causes an inward pulling force. When the lung mooves away from the thoracic cavity, the cavity gets larger creating a negative pressure.
3. The elasticity of the thoracic wall.
• The elastic thoracic wall tends to pull away from the lung, further enlarging the pleural cavity and creating this
negative pressure. The surface tension of pleural fluid resists the actual separation of the lung and thoracic wall.
320

- can cause shock
- very dangerous (better too have on right side)
- neck vein distension
- blunt chest trauma
322
What is an closed pneumothorax?
- When air gets in the pleural space without outside wound
- cystic fibrosis
- Pleural cavity pressure < the atmospheric pressure

2. ventricular Septal Defect (Hole)
3. Pulmonary Valve Stenosis
4. Narrowed pulmonary trunk
349
What is the problem associated with ventricular hypertrophy?
The wall of the ventricle enlarges and there is a decreased volume of blood in one side.
350
Hoow dooes a ventricle become enlarged or hypertrophied?
Partially by pulmonary valve stenosis where the vessal wall is partially obstructed and blood cannot not get out so the ventricle is workking on overdrive to get blood out and it eventually hypertrophies. Also can be caused by a narrowed pulmonary trunk.
351
What is the associated problem with a ventricular septal defect?

- can be reversed called reverse remodeling
360
What is eccentric heart hypertrophy?
"Athlete's heart"
- normal response to excercise or pregnancy.
- Increase in hearts mass and pumping ability
- ihearts response toincreased blood volume
- increase in # of sarcomere's in seris so heart can contract with greater force
- can have risk for conduction abnormalities oor left ventricular dialation (peripartum cardiomyopathy)
361
What is Cardiac Fibrosis?
- excess depositon of the extracellular matrix in cardiac muscle or abnormal thickening of heart valves due to inappropriate proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts
- Causes muscle to be stiffer and less compliant
- slows muscle relaxation and recoil
362
Where does heart fibrosis usually occur?
Tricuspid valve where you may hear a murmur
| -stiffer flaps
363
What causes fibrosis of the heart?
- Aging
- Sedentary lifestyle (more free radicals)
- excersize reduces free radicals
364
Explain how a fibrous myocardium effects heart function.
- cannot relax as fast so the heart doesn't fill all the way resulting in less blood leaving the heart (stroke volume decreases) so now heart has to contract with more force to try to maintain the same level of cardiac output
- heart is working harder at rest which can lead to heart failure
365
What are some possible treatments for heart fibrosis?
- Some evidence in animal models(mice) and some in humans suggests that if you excercise you can reverse some of the fibrosis and improve function of the heart
- Histology oof mice hearts
- Humans imaging
- noot a complete reversal
366
Define a heart attack
- A myocardial Infarcation
- heart cells die and since they do not undergo mitosis(amitotic), they cannot be replaced
- broad range of severity (mild to massive)
- implication is that if you survive you will have a weaker heart
- Treatment is that yoou strengthen the remaining poortion of the heart
- multiple heart attacks = higher risk for death
367
Explain why the inner layer of the myocardium is the most affected area.
Everytime your heart contracts blood flow to the heart tissue stops momentarily and when you relax blood vessels open back up. These cells also get the least amount of oxygen compared with the outer layer due to the temporary stop of blood flow during contraction so these cells will die first.

Explain Q angle
AKA Quadriceps angle
| It is the angle formed between the quadriceps muscles and patella tendon.
376
Explain Q angle
AKA Quadriceps angle
| It is the angle of the femur as it is coming through to the knee.
377
How does Q angle differ between sexes?
Females have a greater Q angle at 16 degrees vs. a male Q angle at 12 degrees
. this is because the female has a wider pelvis, pushing the femur out more laterally. This angle will effect gait slightly because the hip has to rotate and adjust orientation to keep the center of gravity on the shaft of the femur. It is possible that woman may be at a higher risk for ACL injury.

It is the first medial branch off the femoral artery (Feeds the deep muscles)
381
What is the orgin and destination of the medial circumflex artery?
It comes off the deep femoral artery and goes deep and comes oout the back side (Very similar to circumflex in shoulder) Then it anastemoses with lateral circumflex
382
What is the orgin and destination of the lateral circumflex artery?
It comes off the deep femoral artery and goes around to the front
383
Describe the skeletal articulations of the knee.
Femur and Tibia Bones
1. Tibial Condyles will articulate with femoral condyles superiorly
2. The Patella (kneecap) articulates with the anterior surface of the femur
3. Fibula does not articulate with the femur (only with the tibia)
384
Explain the movement of the knee during flexion and extension and the “screw home” movement of the knee.
When moving from extension to flexion to extension again there is some external rotation of the tibia at the end of extension(last 30 degrees) and then internal rotation during flexion.
External rotation tightens both collateral ligaments to stabilize knee joint when standing (improves stability) and rotates medially during flexing to stabilize.
-On knee extension the condyles of the femur also slide rather than rotating to dissicipate force on a bigger surface area
385
List the 4 ligaments of the knee and the functions of each
1. Anterior Cruciate
2. Posterior Cruciate
3. Fibular collateral ligament ((lateral)

386
Explain how to test for ACL injuries.
Drawer test
1. Person lays supine(on their back) and flexes knees 90 degrees
2. You stabilize the foot and reach posteriorly behind tibia and pull anteriorly to see how much tibia will slide anteriorly (1 cm past is normal)
387
What is the function of the poosterior cruciate ligament?
Prevents posterior movement of the tibia (thicker than ACL) so stronger
less common than ACL
388
What is the function of the posterior cruciate ligament?
Prevents posterior movement of the tibia (thicker than ACL) so stronger
less common than ACL
389

What is the postive Trendelenburg test?
The trendelenburg test, tests If there is Damage to the superior gluteal nerve.
A tilted pelvis to the side of the lifted leg = +. This happens when the gluteus medius
and minimus muscles cannot contract when the contralateral leg is lifted to maintain a level pelvis (hip addiuction)
-Right superior gluteal nerveinjured if (hip drops on left side)
394
Origin of the superior and inferior gluteal arteries?
internal iliac arteries
| inferior gluteal artery comes out
395
How do the attachments for the gluteus maximus relate to the movement created by the muscle?
- If you shorten the fasicles of the muscle it would pull on the IT band and give you lateral rotation of the hip (Spinning femur)
- Gluteual Tuberosity is the inferior attachment which extends the hip
396
What does the superior gluteal artery provide blood to?
Gluteus Maximus
397

4. Thoracic Aorta
5. Abdominal Aorta
6. R or L common iliac artery
7. R or Left external iliac artery
8. Turns into femoral artery
9. Enters adductor hiatus and becomes the popliteal artery (this runs on the posterior side of the leg)
10. To get to the anterior side it gives off the medial and lateral superior genicular arteries that run superior to the femoral condyles and the medial and lateral inferior genicular arteries inferior too the condyles (you can sometimes see these in the popliteal fossa)
11. The poplital continues down the leg and splits into the anterior and posterior tibial arteries.
12. The anterior tibial artery goes throough the interosseus membrane inbetween the tibia and fibia to supplythe front of the leg.
